Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for operating a gasoline internal combustion engine with fuel injection during a cold start, according to the introductory part of claim 1.
- a pre-pressure of approximately 4 bar is built up by means of an electric fuel pump.
- the fuel injection itself is limited by an angular window, the start of which is normally predetermined by the opening time of an intake valve and the end of which is determined by the combustion chamber pressure that is established in the cylinder. Since the pressure in the combustion chamber increases during a compression phase and, from a certain piston position, exceeds the pre-pressure built up by the electric fuel pump, the fuel injection must be stopped when the pressure in the combustion chamber exceeds a certain pressure threshold. / Otherwise, air from the combustion be blown into the intake valve so that during the subsequent injection instead of fuel, this air would be injected into the combustion chamber through the intake valve. This would disadvantageously lead to combustion misfires in the corresponding cylinders.
- the start and end of a fuel injection delimited by an angular window are consequently determined by a specific rotational angle position of the crankshaft, the respective rotational angle position including a corresponding, variable crank rotational angle at the start of injection and at the end of injection.
- the time interval during which this crank angle of rotation is traversed depends proportionally on the speed of the internal combustion engine.
- the ignition angle is set as late as possible at least during the first combustion in at least one cylinder, the fuel injected into the combustion chamber, or the fuel-air mixture, is burned during the respective ignition, wherein a very small torque is advantageously generated by this combustion.
- the combustion chamber is heated to such an extent that significantly less fuel has to be injected into the combustion chamber to ensure a subsequent combustion.
- the cold start phase preferably comprises a plurality of burns. Due to the very low speed increase during the first burns mi_t At very late ignition angles, the ignition retard is not limited to the first combustion during the cold start, but can be extended to a desired, optimal number of burns in order to achieve effective heating of the combustion chamber and to optimize further cold start parameters.
- the normal position is advantageously carried out in a single step for setting a desired power operating value. After the cold start phase has ended, this enables a rapid change from late ignition angles to suitable normal ignition angles at which an increased or maximum possible ignition angle efficiency can be achieved.
- the normal position is advantageously carried out in several transition steps for setting a desired power operating value.
- the normal position at the end of the cold start phase can also take place in several transition steps until the desired normal ignition angle is set in order to utilize the greatest possible ignition angle efficiency.
- the cold start value is set individually for each cylinder. Since the cold start behavior of the respective cylinders of an internal combustion engine can be different, it is advantageous to calculate and set a cold start value that is necessary in each case in a cylinder-specific manner in order to effectively avoid To ensure combustion misfires during the cold start of the internal combustion engine with maximum possible ignition angle efficiency.
- the cold start value is preferably set during the cold start phase in each case for the next combustion of a corresponding cylinder. Since increasing combustion chamber heating is achieved with every combustion during the cold start phase, it is advantageous to calculate and set a specific cold start cylinder for each individual combustion. In this way, the retardation of the ignition angle during the cold start phase is kept as small as possible, so that an optimized ignition angle efficiency can advantageously also be achieved during the cold start phase.
- the cold start value is advantageously set by means of a late retardation adapted to the operating temperature of the respective cylinder. In this way, the cold start value of the ignition angle can be kept at the lowest possible level in order to achieve optimum ignition angle efficiency while reliably avoiding misfires during the cold start phase.
- the retardation is advantageously carried out on the condition that the number of ignitions is less than or equal to the value of a parameter which by definition is greater than or equal to one and less than or equal to the number of cylinders of the internal combustion engine, and at the same time the combustion chamber temperature before the first ignition is less than a temperature threshold.
- a temperature threshold can be approximately 0 ° C, for example.
- FIG. 1 shows as a single figure a block diagram of a cold start - ignition angle verselung.
- FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of a cold start ignition angle adjustment, the following definitions applying:
- Block 10 start of the cold start ignition angle adjustment;
- Block 11 parameter acquisition with the parameters,
- n freely applicable number with
- Block 11 the freely applicable number designated by n (for example 1 ⁇ n ⁇ number of cylinders of the internal combustion engine) and the number of ignitions designated by z are. These parameters n and z will be determined by suitable means. Z has the value 0 before the first ignition.
- an alternative query is made automatically as to whether the number of ignitions z is less than or equal to the number of cylinders n of the internal combustion engine (z ⁇ n?) And whether the combustion chamber temperature To in the cylinder before the first ignition is simultaneously lower than a temperature threshold Ts (To ⁇ Ts?). If this is the case, that is, if both conditions are met at the same time and the alternative query is answered with yes, an ignition angle retard (block 13) is activated for the next subsequent ignition z + 1. The alternative query (block 12) is repeated until the number of ignitions z is greater than the number of parameter n.
- the ignition angle is retarded to a cold start value for a number of ignitions z, which corresponds to the number of parameter n.
- This retarding of the ignition angle ensures that the fuel injected into the cylinder or the fuel-air mixture is combusted during the entire cold start phase. Since the ignition angle is retarded during the first combustions, almost no torque is generated during the cold start, so that the speed increase is advantageously very small.
- disadvantageous combustion misfires during the cold start phase are reliably prevented or reduced by means of the ignition angle retard.
- the first burns in the respective cylinder result in advantageous combustion chamber heating, due to which, in order to ensure safe combustion, the need for fuel to be injected into the respective cylinder, or for a fuel-air mixture, compared to a colder combustion chamber for the next one Ignition is reduced.
- the ignition angle has to be adjusted less late with increasing combustion chamber heating due to the first burns during a cold start phase, in order to simultaneously ensure successful combustion of the injected fuel or the fuel-air mixture during the entire cold start phase.
- the ignition angle efficiency can be optimized during the cold start phase of an internal combustion engine, since for each ignition in the cold start phase, only the ignition angle retardation that is just necessary is necessary, which is necessary for successful combustion in all ignitions during the cold start phase and thus to avoid combustion misfires is.
- the ignition angle is divided normally in order to limit the cold start phase to the lowest possible number of ignitions and thus the internal combustion engine as quickly as possible with a high ignition angle efficiency with the largest possible ignition angles (earlier ignition point) to operate.
- the ignition angle retard should preferably detect the first ignition during the cold start of a cylinder of the internal combustion engine in order to keep the start time as short as possible. Furthermore, it is possible to provide several transition steps with increasing ignition advance adjustment when changing from the ignition advance retard to the ignition ignition normal position.
- the optimum, late-adjusted ignition angle value (cold start value) can be set individually for everyone Cylinder of the internal combustion engine can be calculated and adjusted.
